Chapter 40 - He Couldnt be Wrong About Men Too, Right? (2/2)
'Joining the alchemist Guild and leaving the Mercenary guild would be a good thing in most situations, but alchemists take their time to cultivate, their improvement is guaranteed but at the same time slow, as a wisp, my life span is too small to patiently wait for my realm to improve, in the end, I need combat experience if I want to improve faster, so I guess I will need to refuse supervisor Go After all, but I will still stay as a member of the alchemist guild to make some money, I hope that's enough.'
He then grabbed his communicator and turned it on, when he checked it he could see hundreds of messages from Yusa and Ao, it puzzled him, could it be that something happened? He sent a message to the two of them that he is going to the entrance, they can meet him there if they need something, Krune then grabbed his things and left.
On the way out of his room, he had the same feeling from before, everyone was staring at him, but he is sure that he hasn't done anything this time.
'Could it be that they are still thinking about that news from a week ago? First of all, who was the one who said that I wanted to build the strongest team of the ranking system? Because of that I suffered a lot.'
When he got to the entrance of the Mercenary Guild, Yusa and Ao were already there, Yusa came forward and put her hands on Krunes shoulder.
”I say, this isn't even funny anymore, I wonder if you are really serious about living a low key life.”
Krune felt puzzled about that, what is she talking about?
Ao was the one to talk this time.
”Anyway, I think you should ponder more about whether you want to leave the Mercenary Guild to join the Alchemist Guild, the Mercenary Guild was the first one to recognize you after all.”
Krune looked at them and couldn't help but say.
”But I didn't say that I was leaving the mercenary guild, supervisor Go said that I could think over it first, but in the end I decide that I will stay in the mercenary guild as well after all, without battle experience, my cultivation will lag behind, you two, better than anyone in this city, know very well that I can't simply cultivate slowly like everyone else.”
”First of all, how do you even know that the alchemist guild offered me to be only a member of them?”
Yusa and Ao looked at each other, then back at Krune.
”Do you really don't know what is happening?”
Krune shook his head, but he could feel that something bad happened, something that he will not like at all. Yusa then looked at him
”You are really a star, even when you aren't doing anything you still can make the world tremble, the mercenary guild and the alchemist guild of Kaley City re almost starting a fight with each other, and the reason is no one else but you.”
Krune was taken aback, fight because of him, why? Yusa then continued.
”The supervisor of the alchemist guild came a week ago to demand that you should be released of you status as a mercenary and that you should be a member of the alchemist guild only, Lu Ganan, of course, rejected straight away, you are the Rising Star of the Mercenary Guild whether you like it or not after all, and then they got into a discussion and finally things went out of control.”
Krune felt like crying, even when he isn't doing anything, people will still go out of their way to destroy his peaceful life.
Just when he was about to move out to talk with the alchemist guild, Go Gao appeared in the distance, but it wasn't only him, Lu Ganan was also coming from inside of the Mercenary Guild.
Go Gao reached Krune and said.
”You are finally out of your seclusion, I can see that you even broke through the 3rd stage of Foundation Establishment, congratulations. Why don't you come with me now? As long as you decided to leave the mercenary guild I can guarantee that no one will stop you.”
Lu Ganan on the side then said.
”Why would he leave my mercenary guild? It is you who is forcing him into such decision, can't you see that he doesn't want it at all?”
The both of them started to bicker with each other, Krune, on the other hand, was feeling gloomier and gloomier, everyone is paying attention to him, the one who made the two guilds to fight over him. He could see that both parties tension was very high, he pondered how he should alleviate the situation, it was then that he remembered a few words said by that s*x shop attendant back then, he had said that men like to go to a place called brothel to get rid of their tension, even though Krune would not listen to that guy's advice about women anymore, it couldn't be that he is also wrong about men, right? The attendant that day was a human man too after all. He then went in between the two supervisors and said.
”There is no need to continue this discussion, I have already made my decision that I will stay in the Mercenary Guild, but I will also be part of the Alchemist Guild. As for the part of losing my life during the missions, supervisor Go has no need to worry, if there is something that I'm confident about, that is to keep myself safe.”
Lu Ganan was ecstatic, on the other hand, Go Gao didn't like that answer, they didn't lose Krune, but they didn't acquire him for themselves alone either, just as he was about to talk, Krune put his arms around Lu Ganan and Go Gao's shoulders.
”Let's go, I will bring you guys to have some fun.”
Lu Ganan and Go Gao asked almost by instinct.
”Go where?”
Krune then smiled and said.
”To the brothel, of course! I heard that you human men like to go there to alleviate your tension, that's the best place for us to be at moment, this fight between both guilds is now over.”
The people around that were watching the show looked strangely to Go Gao and Lu Ganan, that's because they all know that the both of them are... married!
Go Gao and Lu Ganan almost vomited blood after that. Who the hell will go there with you? Do you want our wives to make us infertile?!
Yusa and Ao put their hands on their faces, they are 100% sure! Krune has absolutely no idea about what a brothel really is at all!
And just like that, the old news about the guilds fight was somehow changed to the news about the guild supervisors being good customers of the Red Lantern, the most famous brothel in the city! Both Go Gao and Lu Ganan had a hard time at home explaining what really happened, they were also left in the dry by their wives for the next few months, they wanted to cry but had no tears.
